Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 2 large Eggs Substitute with flax eggs for a vegan option.
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk Any non-dairy milk works well.
  • 1/4 cup Honey or Maple Syrup Replacement includes agave syrup or sugar-free syrup.
  • 2 tablespoons Avocado Oil or Melted Butter Substitute with coconut oil or any neutral oil.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Use imitation vanilla if necessary.
  • 1 large Grated Carrot Use pre-grated carrots for convenience.
  • 1 large Grated Apple Substitute with applesauce if preferred.
  • 2 cups Rolled Oats Ensure oats are certified gluten-free.
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder Substitute with baking soda if needed.
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon Optional spices like nutmeg can offer variety.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt Omit if on a sodium-restricted diet.

Equipment

  • high-speed blender
  • non-stick skillet

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Blend Wet Ingredients: In your high-speed blender, combine the eggs, unsweetened almond milk, honey or maple syrup, avocado oil, and vanilla extract. Add the grated carrots and apple, blending until the mixture is smooth and creamy, which should take about 30 seconds.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Next, add the rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt to the blender. Blend on low speed until fully incorporated and the oats are broken down, which should take another 30-45 seconds.
  3. Heat the Pan: Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat, allowing it to warm for a few minutes. Grease it lightly with a little additional avocado oil or melted butter to prevent sticking.
  4. Cook Pancakes: Using a ¼ cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet, forming circles about 4 inches wide. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  5. Serve Warm: Once cooked, transfer the pancakes to a plate and keep them warm. Serve with a generous drizzle of maple syrup or your favorite toppings.
